ENDANGERED SPECIES — Federal protections for gray wolves in Wyoming were reinstated today after a judge invalidated the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s 2012 statewide Endangered Species Act delisting of the species, according to Earthjustice.

The ruling from the U.S. District Court halts the management of wolves by Wyoming, a state with a history of extreme anti-wolf policies.
